... probably needs to take a look in the mirror.

A couple weeks ago, I saw some idiot riding down Halsted - no handed, wearing headphones and doing some sort of dance/upper-arm workout waiving his arms in the air and to the side. Riding in the middle of the lane. Cars would pass him but, because he was blowing through the numerous stop-signs on Halsted, he would catch back up and take the middle of the lane. He looked like he was enjoying tying up traffic. There was a pick-up truck ahead of me - the driver and the biker were exchanging dirty looks. Apparently a pissing match going on.

Anyway, by the time I managed to pass everything, the pick-up had pulled over and was apparently waiting for the biker. It looked like trouble brewing but I didn't stick around.
